  3. It is with these credentials and experience Dr Goldstein asserts that Bioidentical hormonesare really a misnomer. They are misleading. Bioidentical hormone therapy, sometimes called BHT, is really a misnomer. It is misleading. It’s really unfortunate there are so many patients who believe that this is a safer way to get hormone therapy. Many of the doctors who promote this are also involved in the anti-aging movement. Ponce de León left Spain six hundred years ago looking for the fountain of youth. We are still looking. The key is “healthy aging” not anti- aging. The problem with most Bioidentical hormones is that it is compounded or made up by a pharmacist with the guise that it will be special for you, sometimes doing salivary testing for your levels of hormone. Hormone replacement therapy, however, unlike thyroid disease, is not based on levels of hormones, it is based on symptoms. Doses are varied until symptoms are relieved. WWW.GOLDSTEINMD.COM

  4. Your only assurance, with something that is compounded is that the pharmacist who made it is licensed in the state in which it is made. In fact, More Magazine ran an article several years ago, where they sent ten hormone preparations that were compounded to an independent laboratory. Not one of them had exactly the thing or the amount it was supposed to have. The Bioidentical hormonesdon’t come with any package insert and it is not any safer than traditional hormone replacement.

  5. It is very sad that all of us who are leaders in the menopause field and familiar with female hormone replacement therapy have had a handful of patients who have developed uterine cancers using compounded hormones because there wasn’t enough progesterone to protect the uterus.
